I help families understand diagnoses and treatment plans and manage the ups and downs that e with caring for a sick child. Tough talks with parents are part of the job,which still makes me feel nervous.The kits the nurse was talking about were something I had recently introduced to the hospital : fort Kits from Guideposts. They were supposed to make a childs experience here easier，not upsetting.When I came across the kits at a conference，I fell in love with them. A treasure box of items designed not only to entertain kids, but to fort and inspire them. Theres a coloring book，a stress ball, a CD of relaxing music, a hairy star named Sparkle, a journal and much more. I really believed these kits would help kids. I wished I hadnt been mistaken.At the patients room in PICU I saw a little girl, sleeping soundly, surrounded by tubes and machines. My eyes met her mothers. The kit was open on her lap and tears were running down her cheeks.“Im Shannon. I manage the Child Life Department. I said. “Im sorry if the kit upset you. Its a new item.The mother shook her head. “This has been one of the worst days of my life. I felt so scared and alone. Then I was handed this box. I know its for my daughter, but its just the fort I needed. I wanted to say thank you.With that I knew fort Kits belonged here. Weve been using them for almost three years now.

There was no way for me to afford a new car, but this one seemed in fine shape. I made the deal and drove it home.It wasnt long, however, before I noticed a squealing (振鸣声). I made an appointment at a local repair factory. The heat of the day made me turn on the air conditioner but no cold air came out. This made me worry more. I wondered if Id made a big mistake.When I arrived at the repair factory, I sat in the waiting room. The warmth and beauty of the day was too good to ignore. I walked outside. Walking around the parked cars, I noticed some beautiful flowers. As I looked down at them, a single white butterfly flew down and landed on them. Butterflies had for years held a special place in my heart. They always reminded me of my mother and her love for me. I smiled when I saw this one and felt in my heart peace and joy I hadnt felt for a long time. I realized then that while the repairers were making a few minor repairs on my car, God was making a few minor repairs on my soul.Life is too short to allow fear and worry to rule our days. Were here on earth to love each other and were reminded of this in countless ways every day. My “new” car is running now and Im doing my best to keep my soul doing the same.

They remind kids to eat with a knife and fork, and not to make noises in public. But theres one important lesson that parents might forget, and it cant be covered in a simple conversation. In fact, theyd better teach kids by example.According to a study, babies receive more than genes（基因）from their parents. They can also absorb good qualities, such as persistence, by watching how adults behave. Researchers at MIT said that babies who watched an adult struggling with and then succeeding in something were more likely to show persistence when given a new task.The team at MIT studied 262 babies between the ages of 13 and 18 months. They were divided into three groups. In the first group, the lead researcher struggled with two different toys problems before solving them, letting the babies watch when she did so. In the second group, the researcher solved the problems but did not struggle with them. And for the third group, she did not do anything.After that, the researcher left the children playing with a small musical toy. She showed the babies that it could play music but did not teach them how to turn it on. The babies in the first group discovered and pressed the toys button many more times than those in the last two groups. In other words, the babies did not copy what they had watched; they learned not to give up, instead.Now researchers are interested in exploring which ways influence babies most. They wonder if the results can work in the real world, and whether the lesson of persistence might last into adulthood. After all, persistence is one of the most important qualities of the successful people.32.What does the underlined part “one important lesson” in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. Behaving politely in public. B. Setting an example to kids.C. Using a knife and fork properly.D. Teaching kids necessary life skills.33.How did the team at MIT mainly carry out the study?A. By doing a research. B. By playing with kids.C. By analyzing some facts. D. By interviewing babies.34.What can be learned from the study ?A. Kids in the first group turned on the musical toy.B. Kids could copy the same behavior of the researcher.C. The first group kids tried more times to turn on the toy.D. Kids in the last two groups had the same performance.35.Which of the following would the author agree with?A. Parents should spend more time with babies.B. Parents should pay attention to their behavior.C. Persistence is an important quality for parents.D. Babies should be taught social skills from birth.第二节 七选五阅读（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Tips on answering interview questionsWhen you are new to a job interview, and dont have much work experience, there are a few things to keep in mind.Do your research. 36 The more familiar you are with the pany and the job requirements, the better prepared you will be to answer questions relating to your interests and abilities.Practice answering interview questions.
